Roll on floured board to 1/4 inch thick. And cut into shapes or can be dropped by teaspoon into hot fat. You may have to add a little more flour to dough if dropping by teaspoon.
2. Brown them on one side, then turn and brown on the other side. Drain on absorbent paper towels. When slightly cooked, shake in paper or plastic bag of powdered sugar until well coated.
